Chapter 184
You Love Her
However, the elevator didn't close as fast as Benjamin came in. The second the elevator door was about to close, a large hand blocked it, and Benjamin then came in and cornered Harper. The elevator doors shut utterly in the next second. They could faintly still hear Lauren yelling, "Benjamin..."
But Benjamin had been watching Harper, his somber face filled with indifference and his voice cold. "Harper, what are you hiding from?"
Harper gave him an icy look. Afraid of getting too close to him, she was trying desperately to move closer to the elevator wall, even trying to become one with it.
Her actions made Benjamin's handsome face grow colder and colder. "Harper, I'm talking to you. Can't you hear me?"
Harper pressed her lips together slightly and frowned, trying not to look at him. But he was so close to her that his breath spilled directly onto her face as he stared intensely at her.
His gaze was as oppressive to Harper and made her feel uncomfortable.
Harper whispered, "I wasn't hiding and I didn't mean to listen to you guys. I just wanted to go to the cafeteria to get some soup, but I didn't expect to hear you chatting lovingly with Ms. Davis. If you're upset by that, I can apologize to you."
She raised a hand to protect her belly. To Benjamin, her movement was a repulsion. He narrowed his eyes slightly, the coldness on his face deepening.
He reached directly and cupped her chin, forcing her to meet his gaze. He even lowered his head to deliberately move closer to her, tickling her skin with his breath, causing her to shiver and stiffen, not daring
to move.
Benjamin said in a low voice, "Do you think I'm chatting lovingly with her?"
"Aren't you?"
"Are you angry because of what Lauren said?"
"No." With that, Harper thought, "Who am I to be angry? I just feel helpless and overwhelmed."
From minding it in the beginning to getting used to it, she wouldn't get angry anymore.
Benjamin sneered, "Harper, you dare not even admit you're angry. When did you become such a coward?"
"I've already said I'm not angry. Who
am I to be angry? What you do with Lauren is your business. What does that have to do with me? ButThis belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

Benjamin, I have to tell you that even if you promised Lauren that
would let me have a child foto
raise, I wouldn't want to. didn't promise this, and I won't have one."
Benjamin frowned, and his handsome face was expressionless. "Do you think I'm letting you have a baby for Lauren?"
"Isn't that right? Because of you, Lauren will never be a mom in her life. It's for her that you suddenly won't divorce and are forcing me to have a baby. Benjamin, you can fulfill all of Lauren's desires because you love her, but you can't base your happiness on someone else's pain."
"So that's why you're moving out?"
"It has nothing to do with me moving out or not. I only moved out because I felt that there was absolutely no point in continuing to live together since we were getting divorced."
Benjamin's face grew colder. He narrowed his eyes slightly and said coldly, "Harper, the way you talk really annoys and angers me. You're better behaved when you don't talk."
Harper's eyes widened, and she
twisted her head hard to shake off
his hand that cupped her chin. Benjamin just let her do it. In the next second, though, he simply her head up and lowered his head to kiss her on the lips.
